Q
  1. What is an advantage in using a packet filtering firewall versus a high-end firewall appliance?
    Packet filters perform almost all the tasks of a high-end firewall at a fraction of the cost.
    Packet filters provide an initial degree of security at the data-link and network layer.
    Packet filters represent a complete firewall solution.
    Packet filters are not susceptible to IP spoofing.

Q
  1. Which statement describes a characteristic of the IKE protocol?
    It uses UDP port 500 to exchange IKE information between the security gateways.
    IKE Phase 1 can be implemented in three different modes: main, aggressive, or quick.
    It allows for the transmission of keys directly across a network.
    The purpose of IKE Phase 2 is to negotiate a security association between two IKE peers.
A

    Only a superview user can configure a new view and add or remove commands from the existing views.
A

A single CLI view can be shared within multiple superviews.

Q

37.

A

Penetration testing = used to determine the possible consequences of successful attacks on the network.

Q
38.	Which statement describes the use of certificate classes in the PKI?

19
Q
  1. Refer to the exhibit. An administrator issues these IOS login enhancement commands to increase the security for login connections. What can be concluded about them?
    Because the login delay command was not used, a one-minute delay between login attempts is assumed.
